Here is a great video of Dylan eating his dinner. He has actually taken really well to food. We started him off with rice cereal and soon found that he did not like it too much. We then tried him with oatmeal cereal which he loves. He currently gets 2 table spoons in the morning and 2 at night. We have also introduced sweet potatoes, peas and carrots. He loves them all. I think we are doing green beans next, but am not sure. Hope ya'll enjoy.

Four Months and Growing
I know I have been a horrible person and haven't updated the blog in a long time. We have been extremely busy the past couple of weeks. Dylan started daycare, Jessica went back to work and I got busy with some of my homes. I will try to recount everything we have been through, but its hard to remember yesterday, you know.
Dylan has had an adventurous couple of weeks. Shortly after he started daycare he got a pretty nasty cold. He was really congested and we actually took him to the ER on a Sunday morning because he could barely breath. Luckily it was all in his throat and not in his chest. He then proceeded to get pink eye, and not a week later he picked up another cold, and we still dealing with that one right now. He has been exceptionally happy considering how he must feel, but because of all the sicknesses he's had he went through almost two weeks where he was not eating very much. We were very worried because he went from eating like 25 to 30 oz a day to like 10 to 15. The Dr. said to just keep an eye on him and they tend to eat less when they feel bad. This past week he has finally gotten his appetite back, so we are very happy. We are not sure how much he weighs right now, because our scale is a little finicky, but he's somewhere around 15 lbs.
Not much else to report at this time. We have his four month check-up on Tuesday so we will let ya'll know the weight on all the other fun stuff. I will post a bunch of pictures and some videos.
Dylan also made his first trip to Dallas last weekend. He had a blast playing with grandma and grandpa, and he loved the pool. We have great video.

Three Month Update
Well it has already been three months. Its hard to believe that this much time has gone by. Dylan is doing great. He started daycare full time this past week, which has been pretty hard on us, especially Jessica. He has really enjoyed himself while there. They did body painting on Wednesday, in which they put a bunch of paint on a piece if paper and then let all the babies roll around in it. Dylan was blue and green all over. Unfortunately we do not have pictures of it, but it was very cute. We think he is about 13 1/2 lbs. right now, but we don't trust our scale to much. His next doctors appointment is August 18th for his four month check up, so we will find out then I guess. Anyway, that about it for now, here are some more pictures.
Yes it does taste better than my milk.

Growing Up Quickly
Sorry it has been so long since we posted any knew news and pictures. We have been going non-stop for the last month or so. We have been to three weddings and traveled many miles, but made it through with no problems.
I will be putting a whole bunch of pictures up or the next couple of days. We have so many that I don't think I can put them all on one post.
As for Mr. Dylan. He has been plugging along. We have not been to the doctor since his two month check-up and wont go until four months, so we don't know exactly how much he weighs but from our scale he's somewhere between 12 1/2 and 13 lbs. It is truly amazing the rate at which they develop. He found his hands about two weeks ago, so of course they won't stay out of his mouth, but he has also started grabbing things, like some toys, his bottle, an stuff like that. It is really cool watching the progression.
This week was a very big week for all three of us. Dylan started day-care on Wednesday. We finally chose which one we wanted a couple of weeks ago, and went and had the intro meeting on Tuesday. His day-care is really nice and we think he will really enjoy going there to play and learn. Jessica starts back to work on Monday, so she is the one that has taken him and picked him up this week, but most of the time she will drop-off and I will pick up. Needless to say Wednesday was very hard for Jessica, it was the first time she had ever left Dylan for such an extended period of time, and with someone that wasn't family, but she is handling it pretty good now two days in. That's about all the big new right now, if I think of anything else I will add it to the other posts with the pictures.

Two Month Update
Well, yesterday was Dylan's two month birthday, if you want to call it that. We went to the doctor in the morning for his check up and shots, he had to have 5 vaccinations 4 of them we shots. He weighed in at 11 lbs. 6 1/2 oz., and 22 1/2 inches long. So he has grown 1 inch and like 2 lbs. 3 oz. in one month.
The doctor said that his thrush is almost completely gone, but we should continue the meds until Monday. She also said he looks great, so I guess we are doing something right.
As for the shots, Jessica did not want to even be in the room, but she toughed it out. The doctor does it so quickly that its over in just a few seconds, but when they stuck that first needle in Dylan turned beat red and almost stopped breathing for a second, it was a little scary to say the least, but he made it.
Here are some new pictures we thought y'all might like to see.
I have an X rated version that I can upload, but Jessica did not want it up.
We thought it only fitting that since Dylan loves to poo in his towels that he wear a Pooh towel
Jessica giving Dylan his evening meal, man it must be great to be able to lounge like that while eating
Is it just us or does he look more and more like an orangutan everyday or what.
We got excited at first because we thought he was learning to play with his pacifier, but he just fell asleep on it and was stuck
Man those shots made me tired
My mommy likes to take pictures up my nose for some reason, I think she doesn't want it to be as big as daddy's, so she is always checking
I'm ready for a hug
